    University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Author : Caroline Sjöberg; [2023]
    Keywords : anaerobic bacteria; biogas; cellulose; cellobiose; VFA; enzyme activity; TRFLP;

    Abstract : Two cellulose degrading bacteria, named BCISO-4 and DC1-18-4, were isolated from samples retrieved from two large scale biogas-plants. In order to investigate and determine information regarding their growth preferences multiple tests were performed. READ MORE

  2. 2. Methods for production of recombinant enzymes for collagen degradation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi; Lunds universitet/Beräkningskemi

    Author : Tea Eriksson; Elin Su; [2020]
    Keywords : Collagenase; Subtilisin; Collagen; Enzymatic hydrolysis; Enzymes; Collagen degradation; Enzyme production; Cloning; Gene optimization; Protein expression; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In this thesis eight enzymes have been identified with documented ability to degrade collagen or its hydrolyzed products. Collagen can be found in skin, bones, and connective tissue. Hydrolyzed collagen peptides are utilized in food, disease treatment, skincare and training supplements. READ MORE

  3. 3. Optimization of a Multiplex PCR-RFLP Method Used for Detection of Three Primary Mutations in Leber’s Hereditary Optic Neuropathy Patients

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för kvinnors och barns hälsa

    Author : Emilia Nord; [2020]
    Keywords : LHON; Restriction enzyme; Multiplex PCR; Mutation detection; Mitochondrial mutation;

    Abstract : Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is the most commonly inherited disease that causes blindness in one or both eyes, with a minimum prevalence of 1 in 31 000 in the northeast of England. What causes LHON is not fully known but three mitochondrial mutations, G3460A, G11778A, and T14484C, have been identified in over 95 % of all LHON patients. READ MORE

  4. 4. Development of a Type IIs cloning strategy for the RUBYTM format & PCR optimization and development of a Type IIs cloning strategy for pool cloning

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i molekylärbiologi

    Author : Marcus Petersson; [2019]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : For Alligator Bioscience AB, a company developing immunotherapeutic antibodies, it is crucial to efficiently evaluate a large number of potential drug candidates at an early stage. The in-house developed RUBYTM concept, combining monoclonal antibodies into bispecific antibodies without lead optimization, requires implementation of high-throughput technologies. READ MORE

  5. 5. The effects of trace elements on the microbial communities of thermophilic biogas production

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Microbiology

    Author : Robin Hagblom; [2016]
    Keywords : biogas; thermophilic; trace elements; ammonia; SAO; fhs;

    Abstract : The increasing need for alternatives to fossil fuels and traditional waste management systems can be simultaneously addressed by the production of biogas using organic waste as input material. The biogas produced can be used directly for energy production or upgraded to increase methane purity for use in the engines of motor vehicles. READ MORE
